The genotype x environment interaction represents one of the major selection challenges due to the difficulty in identifying effectively superior genotypes. The present study aimed at estimating genetic parameters and selecting genotypes of early Carioca beans by analyzing simultaneous attributes, including yield, adaptability, and stability. In the agricultural year of 2015 and 2016, three trials were conducte...
The tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is an important crop in Brazil, however, it is susceptible to different types of bacteria races. The objective was to study the genetic parameters of 43 F2:3 families of tomato in resistance to R. pseudosolanacearum and R. solanacearum. The families were obtained from the cross between the cultivars Yoshimatsu (resistant) and IPA-7 (susceptible). Two experiments were carried ou...
Baby corn is the name given to the female inflorescence of maize before pollination, that is, it is the ear of corn in development harvested two to three days after the issuance of the styles-stigmas. With a fine, delicate texture and sweet taste, the baby corn has become a promising product for the domestic and foreign market, especially since in Brazil the processed product was mostly imported from Thailand. ...
